Paralives - Autonomy and Death
Thankfully, Paralives’ developer Alex Massé understands the appeal and recently released a short clip (embedded above) showing off the death feature. RIP to Roger, who kneels in pain like he’s just downed an entire fizzy drink. The clip above uses the classic ‘trap them in a doorless room’ tactic, but the video actually exists to highlight the Parafolk’s autonomy.
“In Paralives, your characters will be able to decide to perform some interactions on their own,” reads aPatreon postpublished in May and recently made public. “This is what we call the autonomy system.” Parafolk will be able to feed themselves, go to work, and use the toilet independently. Similarly toThe Sims, whatever they choose to do depends on their personality, so a musician will probably play music to kill time, for example. You can also turn off autonomy to take control of your Parafolk’s every action.

There’s no release date yet, but you can find out moreon Steam.
